cam phase position

[Woodsy]

Hello, Does any one know an acceptable range for cam adjustment adaptation phase position (VCDS block 93). The one i'm questioning is the Phase position on bank two it is reading -3.0* KW while bank 1 is reading 1.0 * KW
Any advice or insight would be greatly appreciated. Also the motor is in fact a 4.2 V8 from a B6 S4. i have attached the picture of the vcds blocks under my member photos

VCDS tells you what the acceptable range is just by hovering your mouse over the cell.

Anyway those readings are fine.

Hi guys, would you be able to point me to a link to understand how these measuring block things work and how to read them. I "kind of get it" but I wouldn't want to go into vcds and accidentally screw something up (especially after seeing the warnings that it displays in there! : )
